Maybe all cabins non-smoking too?

 

Overall I really don't care much for the smoking news. What I am really looking forward to is the NYC news tomorrow!

Me too! I live in Upstate NY, and if Carnival brings some really great cruises to NY, I will be a very good costumer indeed to Carnival.

John Heald just reported that piano bars will now be non-smoking...and other "subtle changes" will be coming, along with that lingering NY topic...

This is the best news ever!!!! I just retrned from the Glory where I spent a number of nights in the piano bar sucking in the smoke. My voice is gone.....it irritates my throat so bad that I lose my voice.......

No smoking in the Piano Bars???? wow wow wow....wonderful news !!:D

 

I can't wait to read about the other "subtle" changes !!

 

I have "predicted" this many times:rolleyes:....and have been told to "cruise another line"....and that "Carnival loves smokers">>> ???

 

 

Fact is not many lines are "catering" to smokers and rightfully so...

even the European ships and countries are changing due to the fact that the number of smokers...and tolerance of them..keeps on declining

 

YIPPPEEEEEEEE:p

And I intend to monitor the piano bars to make sure that all the people who have been whining about this are actually IN the smoke-free piano bars:rolleyes: We were recently on the Miracle where the piano bar is already non-smoking. There was a group of 10 of us (mostly smokers) who stayed for a while and then left to go somewhere we could smoke. When we left, there were about 4 or 5 people in there, and that's pretty much the way it stayed for the entire cruise. I was amazed not to see all the people in there who have been screaming for it to be smoke-free:rolleyes:

If all the smokers leave the piano bar, maybe I'll finally get a seat around the piano!:p:) Great news - I don't spend a lot of time there 'cause I can't breathe!

Milburn on the Conquest keeps the smokers well away from the piano. By about 9:30 the place is pretty well packed. Have to say however that I'm not sure if the comedy club hasn't made a difference to how many people hit the piano bar.

 

Must add that the Ecstasy earlier this year was unbearable. Fifteen minutes and that was it for three cruises.

I hope this is true. I spent a lot of hours in piano bars on other lines and loved it. But in April on the Dream we had trouble walking by the place due to all of the smoke pouring out. I'll be on the Glory in 6 weeksand hope to report that we can enjoy the piano bar again.

From a smoker-I never could understand why they allowed it in the piano bar anyway, but it was nice on the Fantasy class, to walk in after dinner and have a smoke(the bar was closed that early) now I will have to go somewhere else:rolleyes:

I remember when JH announced that the Dream piano bar would be nonsmoking it was...Only the "bar" around the piano was the rest of piano bar area at the tables were smoking....

 

The Splendor was totally non-smoking and then they did the same thing.

 

A small lounge with poor ventilation and smokers - doesn't make much matter where they are.

At one time smoking was allowed pretty much everywhere.

I am a big smoker and just sailed a Spanish cruise line, Pullmantur. No smoking inside, period. Including balcony. Only half the ship outside.

Really? That surprises me. I thought Europeans were smokers???

 

I am hoping that with these smoking changes, Carnival reinforces that Electronic Cigarettes can still be smoked everywhere....

 

that would be a great compromise.

When I questioned John Heald about that very question I was told the e-cigs could be used everywhere except the dining rooms. We had no problems using ours at a non-smoking table in the casino a few weeks ago. Hopefully they'll continue allowing them in non-smoking areas
